Standing at an altitude of almost 122 meters, this rocket looks impressive even from the satellite. At the launcher where the photo was taken, the rocket is preparing for its second flight.
The first test flight of the fully assembled Starship rocket was not without its problems, including failed stage separation and self-destruct at SpaceX’s command.
But SpaceX founder and chairman Elon Musk is confident that it will launch soon, as he is only waiting for a license from the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
Starship is the largest and most powerful rocket ever built, with nearly twice the launch thrust of NASA’s Space Launch System megarocket. Musk believes his fully reusable Starship rocket could revolutionize space travel by making colonization of the Moon and Mars economically possible.
